Think about what's best for the students for a change.

The new starting and ending time would cause me to get home from extracurriculars between 8:00 and 10:00 p.m., exhausted, only to have 3-4 more hours of homework to complete.

As it is, we barely make it to academic competitions in the suburbs on time. A later dismissal time would complicate matters dramatically.

students with long commutes, especially those who participate in sports/extracurriculars, will not return home until well after 7PM. This threatens safety and takes away from homework and family time.

The later start time will adversely affect student, parent and faculty schedules and commutes. Students w/ after school commitments (jobs, sports, extracurriculars, siblings to care for), faculty w/ children in day care or at schools w/ normal start-end times, transportation worsened by an influx of commuters during rush hour. It is a short-sighted mandate that ultimately creates more problems than it solves.

The change in times is not good for athletic and after school programs , kids who have jobs and internships , and transportation issues across the city with the later times.
